The Woodlands

Assisted Living in The Woodlands, TX

AutumnGrove Cottage in The Woodlands is located in the Village of Alden Bridge. This cottage is nestled between beautiful trees and a park full of wildlife. From rabbits and deer to squirrels and all types of birds, there are plenty of animals for our residents to enjoy. Many of our cottage residents and family members stroll through the parks on sunny afternoons. Inside The Woodlands Cottage is a staff who is trained in every aspect of memory care and who has a big heart for the residents. The cottage manager has a dedication to caring for others as if they were part of her own family. She works every day, along with her caregivers, to help better the lives of those battling Alzheimer’s or other dementia related diseases. The Woodlands Cottage residents enjoy brain healthy home-cooked meals, brain stimulating individual and group activities, and tender loving care all in a warm and cozy atmosphere.

Favorite Part About Working for AutumnGrove: The loving relationshipsthat I’ve built with my co-workers and families. This has been so much more than a “Job” it has turned into my second family.

Favorite Activity For Residents: Reminiscing by far is my favorite!!! Learning about their life, who they were and what their life was like before Dementia took over. Talking with them teaches me something everyday.

What Got You Into Caring for Alzheimer’s Seniors: It happened by accident I’d just had my first son and decided that after 8 months of being a stay at home mommy wasn’t for me  I decided to give it a try and fell in love!! In love with my residents, my families, and the amazing staff of Autumn Grove. Being at Autumn Grove has not been like a typical job. I make a difference every single day. I change lives and they change mine.

Favorite Moment of Joy with a Resident: We had a resident move into The Woodlands Cottage who was very ill and not expected to live very long. The staff fought hard for her health and well being, we just knew she wasn’t ready to leave this world. Everyday we that we cared, loved and encouraged her she grew stronger. She was so strong that she lived at The Woodlands cottage for 3 years before she passed away. I remember sitting with her one night talking, she turned to me and with love in her eyes said, “Thank you for everything you have done for me.” My heart melted in that moment and I knew that she felt loved and that was all that mattered to me.

Dear Julie, Please accept our sincere thanks for your care and compassion for our Mother, Dorothy. We were so thrilled to be able to obtain a room for her in March of 2010. Although she really did not know much about her surroundings, Pat and I felt it was the right place for her.
